This topic has probably been discussed here before but I'm just now starting to really pay attention to it, as well as use AI myself. Here are a few of my recent experiences...
- First, my wife is an online instructor for college classes, which typically require students to respond to a discussion prompt and reply to two other students' posts. She said close to 60-70% of the discussion is likely AI-generated and students are even feeding a student's initial post into a bot to produce a reply. But it's difficult to prove so there's no 100% certainty they are using AI, although it's obvious when the post doesn't address the prompt, includes specific words AI is known to use, or is totally off topic and makes no sense. Given that most of the students are putting in no effort and not actually meeting the objectives of the assignment, nearly half of the students are failing the class. This is stressing her out because she's big on academic integrity and hates that the students aren't learning anything.
- Second, one of my friends works with scholarship applications and they said students are starting to use AI-generated essays. These are obvious because they, again, don't address the prompt and/or appear to be written by someone from the 1900s, etc. But they can't 100% prove it was written by AI so their hands are tied in some cases.
- Third, I'm taking a grad course for a certification and I'm 99% sure my classmate is copy/pasting 95% of their posts from AI. Our professor has stressed he doesn't mind us using AI but not to copy and to cite if we use it. After a few weeks of my classmate's reliance on AI and putting in little effort, I'm pretty sure my professor got fed up and significantly docked their discussion score.
Overall, I think AI is a useful tool and I use it for work and as a resource for some of my school work. There are also more advanced things you can do with video, audio, and images. What are your thoughts and experiences?
If you're not familiar with AI, I asked ChatGPT "In 50 words, should I trust the market?" and this is what it generated.
Trusting the market involves understanding its unpredictability. While it offers opportunities for growth, it also carries risks. Research, diversification, and a long-term perspective can mitigate uncertainty. Ultimately, trust should be balanced with informed decision-making and risk management to navigate the fluctuations and pursue financial goals effectively.
